4.2.3 Heavy load protection function
In order to ensure a stable circuit behavior and LCD display quality even if the power supply voltage
fluctuates due to driving an external load, the internal operating voltage regulator and the LCD system
voltage regulator have a heavy load protection function.
The internal operating voltage regulator enters heavy load protection mode by writing "1" to the
VDHLMOD register and it ensures stable V
D1
output. Use the heavy load protection function when a heavy
load such as a lamp or buzzer is driven with a port output.
The LCD system voltage regulator enters heavy load protection mode by writing "1" to the VCHLMOD
register and it ensures stable V
C1
–V
C5
outputs. Use the heavy load protection function when the LCD
display has inconsistencies in density.
Note: Current consumption increases in heavy load protection mode, therefore do not set heavy load
protection mode with software if unnecessary.
4.2.4 I/O memory for power control

DBON: Power supply voltage booster/halver boost mode On/Off register (FF02H•D0)
Activates the power supply voltage booster/halver in boost mode.
When "1" is written: Booster On
When "0" is written: Booster Off
Reading: Valid
When "1" is written to DBON, the power supply voltage booster/halver activates in boost mode and almost
doubles the V
DD
voltage to generate the V
D2
voltage. Turn the power supply voltage booster/halver on
when driving the LCD system voltage regulator with V
D2
(V
C2
reference voltage, V
DD
= 1.6 to 2.5 V). When
"0" is written to DBON, the voltage boost operation is deactivated. Be sure to set DBON to "0" (Off) when
driving the LCD system voltage regulator with V
DD
. Furthermore, do not set both DBON and HLON to "1".
At initial reset, this register is set to "0".
